What about Contagion Engine or Contagion Clasp it would give you some more proliferate and puts -1/-1 counters on target creatures.

Obelisk Spider , Fume Spitter , and Contagion Clasp could be worth testing

Karn Liberated , Karn, Scion of Urza , Karn, the Great Creator , Ugin, the Ineffable , Ugin, the Spirit Dragon Those are all solid walkers to fit the Superfriends theme. The Chain Veil and Contagion Engine are a must. Contagion Clasp and Core Prowler are great additions.

I really didn't want to play any of the new Elder Dragons. I pulled Tanazir in that sick full-alternate art...I might consider building him now.

Cards you might want to consider:

Simic Ascendancy

Inexorable Tide

Contagion Clasp

Clockspinning

Everflowing Chalice

Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter

Mowu, Loyal Companion

Soul's Might

Galloping Lizrog

Vorel of the Hull Clade

I don't know if it was intentional or not but you have quite a few creatures that care about counters. Thus, there might be a place for ways to take advantage of that here. Proliferators including Contagion Clasp , Karn's Bastion , and Yawgmoth, Thran Physician come to mind. Some other zombie cards in that vein might be Carrion Feeder , Skinrender , or Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet . Mikaeus, the Unhallowed is a little awkward with the +1/+1 theme. On one hand, he does dish out more counters when he brings some of your guys back for more action. On the other, his undying buff doesn't even apply to 3 of the deck's biggest hitters (in Diregraf Colossus , Unbreathing Horde , and Noosegraf Mob ). I think the single copy is a fair compromise, but I think testing both more and less would be interesting. If you're only looking to play around the tokens, Death Baron , Cemetery Reaper , and Cryptbreaker have proven effective for me, at least in EDH.

I know I am straying from the OP a little bit but there are some other options for tutoring you can fit into an Eisha Commander deck.

Archmage Ascension , Planar Portal , Tamiyo's Journal and Ring of Three Wishes all can tutor to hand. The Ascension is slow but once it comes online it turns every single draw into a tutor. The portal is mana-heavy but repeatable. The journal is probably the worst but an option. The Wish ring is oddly worse than the portal and mythic instead of rare?

But if you combine Ring of Three Wishes with Contagion Clasp it becomes as repeatable as the Planar Portal .

This deck looks awesome. With Jorn, it seems you'd want a pretty specific card pool. That makes suggesting cards tough. I still have something for you:

Bear Umbra is another great way to untap your lands. Contagion Clasp and Inexorable Tide are powerful proliferate cards. Also, all of the land auras such as Fertile Ground increase the effect Jorn has.

Well since you are doing thallids with spore counters I would recommend leaning into Proliferate. Cards like Yawgmoth, Thran Physician, Evolution Sage, and Plaguemaw Beast can help you continue to proliferate all your spore counters or wahtever other counters you have every turn.

• Karn's Bastion
• Contagion Engine
• Contagion Clasp
• Grim Affliction

You might even consider adding Umezawa's Jitte.

Sac outlets that can benefit you are always good. Greater Good

Ways to beef up your saps. Muraganda Petroglyphs, Triumph of the Hordes

Ways to double up on the lifeloss from all the dying saps. Wound Reflection, Archfiend of Despair

Am I heading in the right direction here? Let me know if you like those suggestions.
